Israel passport photo size & rules

The biometric Israeli passport, known as the Darkon, is issued by the Population and Immigration Authority, which operates service bureaus across the country for enrolling applicants and capturing their data. The required photo measures 35 by 45 millimetres, and at 300 dpi it prints to a clear image of about 413 by 531 pixels. Look straight at the camera, keep a neutral expression with your mouth closed, and make sure both eyes are open and unobstructed.

The head should be centered in the frame and sized so the face is prominent, generally occupying around three quarters of the height from chin to crown. Israel requires a plain white background so the portrait reads cleanly for biometric use. Head coverings worn for religious reasons are permitted as long as they do not cast shadows over the face or hide any features, and glasses should be avoided or at least free of glare. A recent, faithful likeness matters because the Israeli passport is widely used for international travel and visa applications.

Pixohub lets you crop, resize, and position an Israel passport photo to these exact requirements from within your browser, using simple and precise controls. Because the image is handled entirely on your own device, it is never uploaded, keeping your photo private, and the service is free to use. Official standards can be updated over time, so please verify the current requirements with the Population and Immigration Authority before you print or submit your photograph.
